US Navy Issue Mil Spec Type G-1 Jacket

Your browser does not support inline frames or is currently configured not to display inline frames.

Since 1938 the G-1 flight jacket has been regulation issue gear to pilots of
the United States Navy. The G-1 is also worn by members of the USMC and US Coast
Guard. This leather flight jacket has been worn by Navy and Marine Corps flight
crews during the most heroic air battles in history.

This jacket, made of 100% Military Spec goatskin, features:

US Navy pattern

Bi-swing back

A genuine silky lambs wool shearling mouton fur collar like the WWII era
jackets (instead of the current government spec synthetic acrylic collar)

Sizes:We recommend that you order one size larger than your normal size for a
roomier fit as this is a Mil. Spec. size garment. For those who prefer the true
to size fit, order your actual size. The sizes are standard men's coat
sizes. Generally speaking, Small is 38-40, Medium is 40-42, Large is
42-44, and XL is 46-48, and XXL is 50-52. Please note that sizes 48 and higher are slightly more expensive (price shown in cart).

For an accurate measurement, you'll need a flexible tape measure (inches) and
someone to help you place and read the measuring tape. Measure the biggest
circumference around the chest and keep the measuring tape horizontal, wrap
around the biggest girth of the chest, keeping the measuring tape up and close
to the arm pits.

Absolutely satisfied. by JOSEPH from San Diego CA USA Pros: High quality materials and specifications.Cons: None noted.Review: This product is obviously made exactly to government specs with heavy duty materials, just like the government requires. It is EXACTLY like my first G-1 flight jacket that I got in the Navy in 1971, which wore out (and was always a little too small--I got this new one in size 44 instead of size 42). Their customer service was excellent, too. I initially ordered a size 46 and needed to exchange it for the size 44, which is perfect for me. Even the packaging, a pet peeve of mine with some online goods, was excellent. As soon as I opened the package, I smelled the thick goat leather and lambs wool collar, just as I had 47 years ago with my first G-1 flight jacket. I took the new one to my tailor and got my old name tag and some of my ships' patches sewn on, and have received several compliments since.

Great Jacket!!! by Thomas from Tulsa OK USA Pros: Extremely well made Cons: NoneReview: I bought the jacket for my son, a Navy vet, as a Christmas gift... I called your customer service line and gave my sons' measurements... I was told what size they would recommend, it fits perfectly... He loves it!!! It appears to be very well made with the best materials... I'm sure as it ages the leather will get even softer and have that really cool, worn patina... Thanks!!!

by Stephen from Alpharetta GA USA Pros: Fits great. Breaks in really nicely. Looks amazing.Cons: Color is darker than my grandfathers and fathers USN issued jackets. Stitching is slightly different in spots, but I'm not doing a re-enacting impression, so that doesnt really bother meReview: My Grandfather and Father were both Issued one of these in the Navy, and unfortunately they were both much skinnier than I am, so I was never able to wear their jackets. I had wanted one of these for years and my wife finally OK'd it as a christmas present. I ordered my true size and it fit a little tight at first, but has broken in wonderfully. It's very soft and comfortable and I have gotten quite a few compliments. It's not a super warm jacket for below freezing weather, but the collar sure is nice when it gets that cold. I will definitely buy another from here, should I need one down the road.

beautiful jacket by kenneth from Ardmore PA USA Pros: looks great and fits rightCons: no side pockets (neither did the original)Review:

This jacket is beautiful. The leather smells and looks great and the zipper is large and works well. The collar is perfect collar and size. My only problem is my arms are short for this jacket but it still works well.

Although I would love side pockets - that is not the design and everyone I read about with side pocket modifications was not as nice or the pockets were in adequate.

The customer service was great working with me after first try ordering wrong size and needing to return it. Would work with my pilot store again.

Very nice jacket by Joe from Cambridge MA USA Pros: High quality; comfortable once worn a bit and "broken in." Very good value for price.Cons: Mouton collar can rub against neck a bitReview: A bit snug; recommend ordering 1-2 sizes larger than your suit size if plan to wear over a sweater.

Relatively warm in "shoulder season" but no fleece lining so not warm below about 30 degrees unless a thick sweater is worn under it.

Mouton collar can rub against your neck if jacket zipped all the way up. Can fix this by unzipping a bit.

Leather and construction of jacket very high and durable.

FANTASTIC SERVICE, FANTASTIC PRODUCT! by Jay Krumholtz from Medway OH USA Pros: It's form fitting. It will make you look good if you are fit.Cons: It,s form fitting. It will make you look bad if you are not fit. Fortunately I have just dropped 25 pounds.Review: I initially ordered an A-2 jacket. It was a bit oversized for me, I measure as a 43 chest so I rounded up on my order. I returned the A-2 jacket with no problem. I then saw that the Navy G-1 jacket was available so I ordered it. Fantastic! it was identical to the one I was issued while serving with VP16 in Jax Fla.in 1971. The customer service was on the job. She contacted me to verify my size selection, since I had changed it!

Just like my original issue Flight Jacket by A Customer from Ocean Park WA USA Pros: Authentic in all respects, down to the smell. Cons: Sizes run small. I had to order the next larger size. But the store had warned of this. Return process was easy. Review: I ordered this jacket because my original - issued to me during my first months of flight training in Pensacola 50 years ago - had somehow shrunk over the years. The new one is hard to tell from the original - near perfect in every regard (materials, workmanship. And construction) down to the "USN" on the zipper flap. I had all of my service & squadron patches transferred from my old jacket, and am now ready for my next reunion!Authe

Great Jacket by Chris from Philadelphia PA USA Pros: The rip stop sleeves makes it a lot easier to move around.

If you like to wear a sweater order one size bigger sizes run a little small. The ripstop make it easy to move your arms all the round. Makes easy to do many functions.

Comfort by Richard from Palos Verdes Estates CA USA Pros: Leather, it breaths. Easy exchange.Cons: Only mailing cost to return for larger size.Review: I had to advance 2 sizes up from my Pensacola issued one. First was for comfort as advertised. Second was for 55 years shifting of weight and I am still a slimmer body shape than most older men. Regular 46 was long enough for 42 long, but I do not think longs existed in 1959. I like the embracing feel.

Incredible quality; amazing jacket! by DMC from UT USA Pros: Incredible quality, authenticity, and awesome customer serviceCons: None. I would buy it again.Review: After reviewing several of these jackets, I settled on this jacket because of the incredible reviews, and I was not disappointed. The leather is such high quality and the jacket is the most authentic replica I have ever seen - including the stenciled 'USN' on the lapel. It fits well; if you are long-torsoed a long would be good, but these G-1s are supposed to hit right at waist, so unless you typically buy long or want a less traditional fit (which I think looks odd) I would get a regular. The return process when I bought a long and didn't need it was easy. Incredible jacket!!

The material and workmanship are of the highest level. The skins are superior and the real fur collar great on my neck compared to my old jacket. I guess I fall into the crack as far as size. I ordered one size up and it is a little too loose. Wish I had bought the size 50. Otherwise I couldn't be happier, I wear it everyday.

Top Notch by Martha from Strafford MO USA Review: 5 star product and customer service! My husband is very pleased with this jacket, both with the workmanship and details.

The exchange was very prompt and seamless. Love this company and will order other products.

Exactly what I wanted! by JJ from Coppell, Texas Pros: Exactly as described, no surprises!Cons: Absolutely none.Review: After chatting with the girl on your staff, I ordered a 52 L jacket. It arrived on Christmas Eve. Everything is perfect. The leather is a little darker than I remember but that doesn't matter, I am thrilled. I haven't seen my old jacket in years. One of the boys got off with it and he is welcome to it, wouldn't fit now in any event. I have worn it everyday since I got it. I even drove home from OKC wearing it. I haven't been able to stand the restriction of wearing a jacket while driving in years. But it is so comfortable and I had forgotten how well a properly made jacket feels when you move. No pulling or stretching, it is great. Thanks again, I couldn't be happier.

My husband could not be any happier by A Customer from Strafford, MO Review: Wow! You guys are really GOOD! I went against the suggestions to order a size up in the Navy G-1 jacket and had to return the first one for the next larger size. All of the necessary transactions were handled accurately and speedily. Your crew is the very best I've dealt with. My husband could not be any happier with this Navy inscribed jacket. He is a 30-yr veteran who retired in 1986 as CWO4 in GCA-ATC. He is also a pilot - just not a Navy one. (He also currently has 6 holes in one.) He is long overdue for a gift like this one. Thank you for all your help in getting him this treat!

by Consuelo from Dayton, OH Review: THANKS!!The jacket arrived on my husband's birthday, like they promised me. Great service! The size was so perfect! We choose the 52 L because my husband is tall and he wants to feel comfortable. The lady on the chat (sorry I forgot your name) was very helpful, she advised me so well that I was very impressed. No frustration about the size! The jacket is strong but also lighter compare to another old (not so well made) jacket that my husband had, before we met. This was a nice gift for celebrate is 50 ! Thanks! he is so happy. We love it!!

EXCELLENT ! by "Rack" from Kennewick WA USA Pros: I had purchased a "G-1" from a competitor for less money. It was a sad, poorly fitting obvious imitation.Cons: Gotta think here... Ah. The waist band on my 52 is a couple inches longer than replacements. Buying 2 and splicing them will be required.Review: I've owned 2 "Original Issue" G-1's in the past, gifted to me by Naval Aviators. This jacket is the spittin image.I recently spent time with FA-18F pilots at a Naval flight operation in California. When they noted my new jacket, they commented that they did not know that the Navy supplied G-1's in size 52. I love this fine piece of work. Soft, supple, warm and I must say, a bit suave.

Great jacket by Rene from Lafayette LA USA Pros: Good stitching and workmanship. Excellent color, very comfortable fitCons: Sleeves too long for me, but that is because no short sizes are available.Review: I love my jacket. It met expectations in that it seems to be well made. It is very much like the one I wore in the Navy. I love the feel and smell of a quality leather jacket. It is obviously a quality product and I get compliments every time I wear it. Being short (5'7" 38" chest and 30" waist), I ordered a size 38, it fits perfectly except the sleeve length is too long by about 1-1/2" I wish the jacket could be ordered in "short size" which would make it a perfect fit. The fit recommendations; to order one size up is spot on. The jacket fits snugly which is the way I like it, but if you expect to wear several layers or heavy sweaters under it, be sure and order the size up. Since I don't expect to wear heavy sweaters or shirts under it, I find it fits perfectly over a medium weight sweater. The jacket is a perfect weight for wearing here in South Louisiana for our very mild winters most of the time.

by Denis from Sylmar CA USA Pros: leather, style, construction, fasteners, customer serviceCons: noneReview: No way around it, this is an absolutely fantastic coat! I think the sizing runs a bit on the small side but I also like my coats loose enough to wear a sweater or sweatshirt underneath. The size I finally got works great. The coat is warm, comfortable, and just looks so neat. It seems incredibly well made and durable.the service at the store was very good, the chat responsive and the turnaround time for both original coat and larger size was very timely.I'm hoping to keep and wear this coat forever - hmm be buried in it? - but surely would not hesitate a minute to come back and get a replacement for this tour if I ever had to.

Service after the sale by Thomas from Midwest USA Pros: Exactly as expected.

I snapped some pictures and sent them to Cockpit, USA and they were extremely responsive in getting a replacement coordinated through My Pilot Store. You practically had to pry it from my hands but it was well worth it. They really stand behind the product.It's a terrific product. Very high quality and something I will wear for years.I old my wife I was supposed to wear it to bed to properly break it in but she didn't buy it. This jacket makes a statement all by itself. You'll have to up you game a bit because the Navy doesn't take well to it's "Aviators" walking around with their hands in their pockets. They have "Pilots" jackets for that. LOL

I love this coat. by Doug from Valrico FL USA Pros: Everything is perfect.Cons: I have gotten used to having my hands in my pockets. Big no no in the Navy. No pockets for hands.

I either did not have the money or the right connection. Now after almost 20yrs. I have what I desired for so long.It is definitely worth having if you are in the same boat I was in.

Quality construction and material. I was hesitant to spend this much and looked at cheaper alternatives. Returned them all and am glad I did. Did order a size larger as suggested and it fits me perfect with a heavy sweater under and I am happy with the fit without a sweater. I could not recommend a product more highly.

They can't take this one away. by "Doc" Hicks from Los Angeles CA USA Pros: Fits and moves like a second skin. Authentic style, materials, and construction.Cons: Excessive time spent looking for old patchesReview: Received great service from MyPilotStore -- even got a call to confirm my size selection before they shipped. Packing was excellent and the jacket is ... well, it's a G-1.

I had two enlisted DIFCREW assignments. I was issued flight gear (suits, helmet, boots, gloves) and a G-1 each time, and each time I had to give it all back when the assignment ended. Could've cared less about the gear, but losing the jackets was painful -- when I tried to keep the last one, they had to threaten Mast and pry it off my back.

They can't take this one away from me.

worth every cent. by charles from Athens AL USA Review: It's easy to see it's the real deal. Comfortable, warm, and very supremely constructed. If I could offer one improvement it would be to offer a long version for those of us with a longer body. It easily rides up above the waist.

Better than the original by "Mrs. Maj" from Bloomington IL USA Pros: Original specs, quality of leather, fit, price/valueCons: NoneReview:
My husband was a Marine A-4 pilot in the early 70's. His original issued leather flight jacket in 1970 was a size 40. It is in great condition still, but too tight to wear zipped up. He says The new G-1 jacket (size 42) is better than the original and identical to the specs on his original. The quality of the leather is even better, although a little darker. The fit is perfect for him (5'8" and 150 lbs). He wears it everywhere.

Not what I expected, better than I thought by William from Milan IL USA Pros: It's mil spec.Cons: Not a great fit.Review: Well it is a mil spec jacket.

Nice leather, sleeves a little tight.

Solid Choice by A Customer from Butler NJ USA Pros: Good fit, sturdy construction, quality materials.Cons: Could come with spare buttons.Review: I have owned several jackets of this type over the years and have recently found it impossible to find quality anywhere near where it used to be in almost every type of product. Here is one exception to the rule. Jacket is as advertised with sturdy constuction made from quality materials. Looks great and fits true to size. Sleeves were long enough on the regular version and I am 6'-2" tall.

Would buy again by Admiral from Mattawa WA USA Pros: matches in looks the original flight jacketsReview:

Looks, feels and smells like flight jacket I was issued when my Naval Air Reserve Squadron VS-891 was activated in Oct 1961 when the Berlin Wall was going up.

Only worn it a few times but love the feel of it.

Fits well.

Somebody should tell my wife flight jackets are made to have squadron patches sewn on them. The patches are a walking history of where and what you done in your career.

I felt as though I were back in the submarine NAVY! by Dr. Joseph from Shelby MT USA Pros: Authenticity!Cons: None, from my perspective!Review: The quality of this jacket is superb, and I especially like that the collar is real lamb's wool shearling mouton fur rather than the Mil Spec acrylic currently being used. I followed the sizing recommendations for this jacket and ordered the next size up, which turned out to be a great fit, especially accommodating a heavy sweater. The "official" NAVY jacket did not have hand-warmer side pockets, so I was glad to see that the authenticity was maintained by not having them. If those pockets are important to someone, then there's another similar jacket that can be ordered. If a person is looking for a "warm" jacket, then there are others that would be more appropriate than this one, unless a heavy sweater is worn underneath. The other "authentic" touches that I appreciated were the loop for hanging the jacket (It wasn't attached to the leather, either, in the original.), and the "USN" stamped with small holes in the flap behind the zipper. Once again, if one is interested in a jacket that's "other than authentic", there are other models offered that would better-serve a person. I wanted "authenticity", as much as possible! Thank you...

Great product, great service and worth the price. by John (VP-47) from Michigan Cons: I can't find anyReview: I have wanted to replace my G-1 ever since someone turned it in when I was Med-evaced from the pacific in early 68. Someone was nice enough to cut off my patches and put them with my personal belongings and they have spent the last 44 years waiting for a proper home, and it arrived today.

The jacket was everything I had hoped it would be. The look, the color, the weight, the feel and even the smell are as I remember. When I put it on and closed my eyes, I felt that there must be a Lockheed P-3 Orion waiting on the flight line for me.

Sooooo much nicer than my original Government Issue jacket by flghtmedic from MILTON FL USA Pros: fair price, quality workmanship, MADE IN THE USA!Cons: noneReview: After 20 years in the Navy my original government issue G-1 jacket no longer fit well. I had originally been issued a 38 and later traded it for a 42. Now that 42 was even too small. I ordered my 46 from mypilotstore.com at the end of January. It arrived in very good time and the price was right compared to other places I checked. I dug through all my old patches to find the best ones to put on my new jacket. I then took my jacket to Wings and Things here in Pensacola, FL where they do an outstanding job sewing patches onto jackets and flight suits. I only wish I could attach a photo to show you all how great it looks. I also wish I could afford to have all my patches made into the beautiful painted leather ones they sell here, that is the one thing that would make it better!

by Hat Trick from Pacific Northwest Pros: Accurate, well made, beautifulCons: noneReview: My original, which logged 2000 flight hours (before they made us wear the green one) and with all my unit patches was stolen during my last Navy move right out of my house by a temporary moving company kid (with helmet, boots, etc). Not a good day. A buddy of mine years later bought this G-1 as a gift. That was a good day. It's perfect, and if anything an improvement on the cuffs, which frayed quickly on the originals. The feel, weight and smell are identical...and of course you get the same reaction from the opposite sex. :)

Exactly what I was looking for by Gary from Laurel MD USA Pros: Good fit on shoulders and back, flexible, great leatherCons: need a 1/2 size larger to go over sweater-see comment aboveReview: I ordered one size larger as suggested by your ad. However, it should be designed 1/2 size larger than that to accomodate a sweater or bulkier clothing underneath in cold weather. Front panel pockets should be made to expand a bit more to accomodte gloves, other items; they are too tight. Needs a deep vertical inside pocket (like a shirt pocket) on the right side for airline tickets, papers,sunglasses, etc

Lots of Bang - it took years from my old age! by chuck "matt" mathews from Brandon MS USA Pros: EverythingCons: There are noneReview: This flight jacket is just as I remember mine in the early 50's. It has reduced the age that I feel and has put a bounce back in my step. I ordered it a bit large so that I don't have to hold my "belly" in so much. Memories can't be purchased so there is no problem with the price. I really do love the jacket. It has been in the 70's here in Mississippi this Jan. but I've managed to wear it with the aircondition on low. Smile! Matt, VP47 52-55 BA7

Authentic Navy G1 by girlpilot from Saint Louis MO USA Pros: authentic, quality, size, appearanceReview: I bought this jacket as a gift for a Viet Nam-era naval aviator. He loved it - fits perfectly, has all the features he remembered from his Navy issue jacket right down to having U S Navy stamped under the zipper. Detailing appears to be authentic. The leather is substantial but supple so he can move freely in it. He had a friend transfer his squadron patches to it and is very pleased with how it looks and wears.

Great Jacket, Just Like the Standard Navy Issue by A Customer from FL USA Pros: Fantastic quality, gorgeous jacket, just like the Navy issued jacket, great customer service, prompt shippingCons: noneReview: This is a stunning jacket, and is identical to the one my husband was issued. His was stolen last year out of my car, and this is the one we replaced it with after reading several of the reviews above. My husband and I both think it is actually a couple of steps up from the standard-issue jacket-- the collar is real fur (I think his first jacket was synthetic fur) and the stitching appears to be superior as well. As far as sizing is concerned, this is a jacket that fits a bit more snuggly, so if you're between sizes, definitely go up to the larger size.

My Pilot Store was awesome about sending it the same day I ordered even though it was past the cutoff time. Thanks for such a great transaction and a beautiful product!

The materials and workmanship are top quality.Cons: If If you want a treasure map lining and a place to stuff your hands this is not for you.Review: I was hesitant to spend $400 on a jacket without seeing it and trying it on. When I received this one and pulled it from the package my doubts vanished. It is the real thing. I feel qualified to judge having spent half of my thirty years in the Corps in aviation units.

My issue jacket always seemed too short for my orangutan arms so I ordered a long. I have put my ID and squadron patch on with velcro. When they are removed the remaining velcro is barely visible on the dark leather and the jacket looks quite conservative.

Excellent jacket by TACCO Paul from Honolulu, HI USA Pros: Warm jacket and identical to the original; even the pros won't tell the difference.Cons: Just one pocket button is unravelling.Review: After losing my jacket in flight school, I went without one for a long time because the Navy's supply system is so skimpy in replacing them. The jacket I recieved from this store is identical to the original and I wear it to the squadron often. The fit was perfect for the size I ordered. The leather is high quality and the brass zipper is big enough to operate even while wearing flight gloves. However, the button on the left pocket has begun to unravel in just a few weeks of use, but it'll be an easy fix to sew back on.
